EBL Open on Ghatasthapana
On Monday, September 22, 2025 (Ashwin 6, 2082), which is Nepal’s Ghatasthapana public holiday, Everest Bank Limited will keep select branches open to provide essential banking services. The bank will offer limited services from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM, while its ATMs and digital banking platforms will remain operational 24/7.
Branches and Services
Everest Bank has designated specific branches across several provinces to ensure customers have access to banking services during the public holiday. The services offered will primarily focus on urgent transactions, such as domestic remittances.
- Biratnagar (Koshi Province): This branch will offer Nepali remittance and other essential banking services.
- Birgunj (Madhesh Province): Similar to Biratnagar, this branch will handle Nepali remittance and other essential transactions.
- Kathmandu (Bagmati Province): Four branches in the capital—New Road, Bajbazaar, Satdobato, and Teku—will be open. These locations will handle Nepali remittance and ECC/RTGS (Domestic) services for businesses and individuals requiring high-value or urgent payments.
- Pokhara (Gandaki Province): This branch will provide Nepali remittance and other essential banking services.
- Butwal (Lumbini Province): This branch will offer Nepali remittance and other essential services.
- Dhangadhi (Sudurpaschim Province): This branch will also be open for Nepali remittance and other essential transactions.
Alternative Banking Options
While the select branches will be open for limited hours, Everest Bank is strongly encouraging customers to use its digital banking services for routine transactions. These include mobile banking, internet banking, and the extensive network of ATMs across the country. Using these platforms allows customers to conduct transactions at their convenience without needing to visit a physical branch.
For any urgent inquiries or assistance, customers can contact the bank’s support team at the provided phone numbers: 01-5970000 and 1660-012-1212 (Toll-Free). This ensures that help is available even on a non-working day.
Planning for the Holiday
The bank’s notice serves as a reminder for customers to plan ahead, especially for time-sensitive or large-scale transactions. While the open branches provide a crucial service, the limited hours and locations mean that not all banking needs can be met. This proactive approach by Everest Bank demonstrates its commitment to maintaining essential financial services for its customers even during national holidays, ensuring they can send and receive money without significant disruption.
